The exorcism caught on video showed the Connecticut teen writhing on the floor as adults hovered above him ordering the demons to be cast out.

The boy's supposed sin? Being g**.

Except the teen isn't convinced that being g** is wrong, according to a Connecticut nonprofit group for g** and lesbian youth that has mentored him for about a year.

Robin McHaelen, executive director of the Manchester-Conn., True Colors, said she was horrified when she saw the video, reputedly shot in March and posted on YouTube by the leaders of the Manifested Glory Ministries.

The video, which has since been pulled from YouTube but can be seen on multiple Internet sites and newscasts, shows the teen flopping violently on the floor, even vomiting at one point.

McHaelen said she was mandated by law to report the exorcism to the state Department of Children and Families, which she said is now investigating.

...Hmn, strange that the male keyword is automatically censored out while the female keyword isn't...

I was going to use the url to the LA Times article but the link keeps getting censored out, luckily ABCNews has a similar article and news video to go with it:

The former is thrown about here more frequently and usually with greater malice behind it.

For example, I don't see many threads here that start out with "My Chemical Romance is such a lesbian band".

This is just sad. I feel sorry for anyone who actually thinks that having an exorcism because of someone's sexuality is actually necessary.

No offense, Arnie, but I can only see this heading into the kind of religious discussion that we're trying to avoid on here. I guess it really isn't your night... Sorry, dude.
